With all the drama that was last year, I didn't film my process of decorating my tree, (but you can see me clean and restore my grandmothers old tree here), so this year, I thought I'd make an active effort to at least share my thought process with my tree this year. You may remember … Continue reading My Very Vintage Christmas Tree

Polka Dot Vintage Market – November 2021
We all have different signs that means the year is coming to a close, for some it's avoiding Mariah Carey screeching what she wants for Christmas, for others it's the phone call from family asking what they want for presents this year; for me, it's when Perth holds it's November Polka Dot Vintage Market. The … Continue reading Polka Dot Vintage Market – November 2021
Erstwilder X Mimsy Halloween Collection
Hands down, Halloween is a magical time of year and I am all about the pumpkins and cute little spooks. I definitely lean more on the 'cute' side of spooky so when I saw that Erstwilder was working with Mimsy I was very excited to see their Halloween collection for 2021. If you're unaware, Mimsy … Continue reading Erstwilder X Mimsy Halloween Collection
Met Gala looks inspired by Vintage Icons
I'm not a huge celebrity follower and I can't seem to find enough time to keep up with the Kardashians but I do take some time out each year to check out all the stunning looks from the Met Gala.

Well, here we are today at the cusp of a brand new collection inspired by the previous Art Nouveau collection but with a few … Continue reading Erstwilder Art Nouveau 2021 Collection

Baking a Vintage Easter Lamb Cake that went Horribly Wrong
Last year I made a vintage lamb cake for Easter and I was so proud of how it turned out. This year, I was even more excited to make another one and after reading one of my favourite children's book to my niece and nephew, 'Where is the Green Sheep?', I thought I'd make a … Continue reading Baking a Vintage Easter Lamb Cake that went Horribly Wrong
My Birthday Weekend 2021
If you know me well, I'm not a huge birthday person. I don't really know why but I actively try to avoid reminding anyone it's my birthday and try to keep it all very low key and quiet. I see people announce it's their birthday month, week, weekend all the time and I'm normally super … Continue reading My Birthday Weekend 2021
Erstwilder Fan Favourites 2021
We all know that once Erstwilder sell out of a design, it's gone forever and you are forced to hunt in the wilderness of buy/swap/sell groups or Ebay for your dream brooch. Although Erstwilder will not remake a certain design the same way, they do every now and then release the same design but in … Continue reading Erstwilder Fan Favourites 2021
